The Legacie of Brazil's Military Dictatorship
In the new episode of Brazil Unfiltered, James Naylor Green interviews Vera Paiva, a Full Professor in the Department of Social Psychology at the Institute of Psychology at the University of São Paulo. She is dedicated to psychosocial approaches to inequality and sexuality and to the innovation of health practices based on human rights, with an emphasis on STIs/AIDS and covid-19. She is the eldest daughter of Rubens Paiva, a Brazilian engineer and politician tortured and murdered by Brazil's military dictatorship in 1971. Her family's life is the subject of feature film I'm Still Here, a box office hit in Brazil, shortlisted in the 2025 Academy Awards International Film category. In the show, they discuss the ways Brazil's dictatorship period still reverberates through society and what I'm Still Here adds to the conversation.
